    The Setting
    This roleplay is set in modern, maybe slightly futuristic times, but with a major twist: creatures from various legends and mythologies are real! Originally believed to be the thing of legends, a few generations ago it became public knowledge that beings such as elves, mermaids, dwarves, dragons, etc. actually did exist! These beings became collectively referred to as Mythics, referring to the nature of their origins. Various species of Mythics sought to coexist with humans, and even taught them of magics which had been lost to humanity since the times that Mythics were last believed to exist to begin with. Despite all this, there were many who didn't trust these creatures that seemingly appeared out of nowhere, and to this day there still remains an adequate percentage of the populace who feel this way. Some countries even go so far to deny legal rights and citizenship to Mythics, often driving them out of their homelands. Such estranged Mythics often end up in some of the more progressive cities, where not only are their rights guaranteed, but so is their desired coexistence. There are many cities across the world that have adopted full integration of Human and Mythic societies, and are viewed by many Mythics as safe-havens. Some have even integrated to the point that inter-species families have formed. Our story takes place in one such city of progress, where Humans and Mythics work together to further advance or streamline technology that has less impact on the planet's climate; Cyberleaf City.

    Although everything seems peaceful enough, there is a very real reason that Mythics consider cities like Cyberleaf as safe-havens. This has to do with the reason why the Mythics suddenly appeared once again. As the story goes, Mythics have lived a long time in a parallel space to where Humans live, but after various situations such as sudden climate change and severe pollution began to have severe effects on the Human realm, corrupt and polluted creatures once believed to have been eradicated started infecting the Mythic realm. Originally the Mythics had no issues dealing with them, but the worse things got in the Human realm the stronger and more numerous the creatures, titled Beasts, became. Eventually the masses of Beasts became too much for the stability of the Mythic realm to remain sound, and most of the Mythics were driven out. This was when they suddenly appeared to Humans, and why many were so adamant about being coexistent and offering the teachings of magics. Naturally, it didn't take long for the Beasts to eventually start spilling out into the Human realm as well, forcing humans to begin surrounding their cities in walls and fortifications similar to kingdoms of the past. That said, their interiors remained mostly the same, and some managed to still make technological advances.

    These days, children in their teens are often taught how to fight and defend themselves, as well as to use whatever magics they're proficient at, alongside the usual curriculum. Some cities even host inter-school competitions for magic and combat as a sport. Truly, even the presence of impending doom has managed to integrate into the norm.

    What We're Looking For
    Numbers
    We're looking for a solid group of imaginative and open-minded people. It's preferable that each person take on multiple characters in different environments, but also understandable if some can't handle that much all at once. I am also open to joint GMing on this story for those who are serious, reliable, and preferably experienced. Just let me know what you can and want to do if you're interested!

    Characters
    Most of the necessary characters have been claimed or are still in the works, but we are still accepting more characters to be made. I'm hoping to get a mixture of different characters with various backgrounds (preferably less on the Mary Sue/Gary Stu side), and a combination of both Human and Mythic characters. Mythic characters ARE allowed to have kemonomimi or hybrid bodies, but full on furry is going a step too far. That said, we currently have a serious imbalance of characters, and are currently in need of more Humans. If you need a note for inspiration, keep in mind that Humans tend to have more room for variety in their magic versus Mythics, and also tend to have more familiarity with modern technology than most Mythics, so use that to your advantage. Anime or similarly stylized artwork is preferable for character appearances. There is both a Simple CS and a Detailed CS. The Simple CS is designed for creating the initial backbone for the character quickly, allowing room for discussion and growth on the character's overall design and history. Once the CS page is set up, anyone whose simple character profile got approved will now have to fill out the detailed CS with more information to post, with all new information added in.
    • The Simple CS sheet can be copied on this tab.
    Activity
    While staying active is very important to keep any RP relevant, interesting, and, well, alive, I do know that people have lives outside Iwaku. With this in mind, I think it'd be safe to set up a 1 week posting deadline for all members with special exceptions for special circumstances; that is to say, each person must post within 1 week from the previous post. That being said, I can also see this deadline being too strict for some, so let me know if that's the only thing putting you off from joining and we can discuss a more reasonable deadline. While I'm on the subject of posting, I'd also like to mention that all posting will be done in a pre-determined order. Members may post as all their characters in a single post, or they may split their characters between multiple posts at their own discretion so they don't have to type as much per post. The latter format will result in multiple turns for anyone who chooses that option, which will be kept separated for the sake of flow. When everything is set up and established just let me know your preferred method and I'll take it into account when determining the posting order. As for the order of posts, we can discuss having it be randomly determined via RNG or intentionally organized based on events in the story after everything's officially set up.

    Inquiries
    If you have any questions about the story or anything else concerning it then please do ask and I'll do my best to answer it. Anything I don't have an answer for can obviously be discussed more at length with the group. All questions, comments, and applications should be responded to within 48 hours or less.

    Approved Characters
    By: Lore Magus

    Juushirou Yukimura
    Occupation: Student; 3rd year in high school (12th grade)

    Gender: Male

    Age: 18

    Race: Hybrid; part Youko on his mother's side

    Relevance: High

    Combat style: Magus swordsman

    Personality: He's a kindhearted, trusting, and outwardly sociable person; often fairly laid back in demeanor. He is friendly to most, but some people might find it difficult to get into his inner ring of close friends because of his tendency to treat most people the same. The major difference in his treatment of his close friends is that he will actively spend time with them outside of classes and he will always have their cell number. Occasionally he may even stage fake fights with some of his close friends in order to mess with other students that don't know about them, such as when starting a school year in a new classroom or something. This may lead people to have the impression that he and his friend are violent, until they start shaking hands, hugging, crying with joy, laughing, etc. He is also the type who almost obsessively dotes over his younger sister, despite her being in high school now. This can sometimes lead to the impression that he has a sister complex, which he will usually deny. Lastly, he has a fairly strong sense of justice and will do what he can to protect others, especially those he really cares for. This can sometimes put him in serious, life-threatening situations, but he is usually fairly capable of reading the situation and avoiding drawing out fights he can't win.

    Relationships:
    • Satoshi Yukimura: Father, Great relationship; he loves, respects, and looks up to him
    • Kyo Yukimura: Mother, Great relationship; he loves her dearly, although he is a bit afraid of her after his traumatic experience
    • Ryouko Yukimura: Younger sister, Great relationship; he loves and cares for her dearly, always wanting to make her happy and keep her smiling
    • Yuichi Yukimura: Older male cousin, Strained relationship; he tries to get along with him but doesn't seem to succeed much
    • Ayaka Hamasaki: Childhood Friend, Neighbor, Great relationship; he's known her since they were little, so they tend to spend a lot of time together
    • Daichi Imagawa: Childhood Friend, Great relationship; they met in grade school and got along really well ever since
    • ??????? ???????: Childhood Friend, Dead relationship; they met in grade school and got along well, but then something happened and they haven't seen each other since, although Juushirou thinks of him often

    Satoshi Yukimura
    Occupation: Cyberleaf Municipal Accountant (retired Guard Force Official)

    Gender: Male

    Age: 48

    Race: Human

    Relevance: Medium

    Combat style: Final Boss

    Personality: He's a fairly serious and intense person, but he typically acts relaxed and fairly carefree. That said, he sometimes has a bit of a standoffish demeanor toward certain people that cross him. When he's at home around his family his general attitude is like looking at a completely different person; around them he's cheery, loving, supportive, and highly animated. All in all, he's very serious about following his sense of right and wrong, and made it a point to pass it on to his children and also attempted to pass it on to his nephew. He uses a lot of outdated slang.

    Relationships:
    • Kyo Yukimura: Beloved wife; he's absolutely smitten with her
    • Juushirou Yukimura: Son, Great relationship; he's very proud of him and loves him dearly
    • Ryouko Yukimura: Daughter, Great relationship; he loves her dearly
    • Yuichi Yukimura: Nephew, Strained relationship; tries to show he cares but is typically shut out
    • Contessa Moretti: Former colleague, Good relationship; thinks she acts a bit childish towards him sometimes but enjoys her company and respects her passions and sense of justice

    Yuichi Yukimura
    Occupation: Student; Guard Force University Senior

    Gender: Male

    Age: 21

    Race: Human

    Relevance: High

    Combat style: Niten Ichi-ryū (two heavens as one; weilding two Japanese swords -katana and wakizashi- together)

    Personality: He's a very justice-bound person, holding fast to his beliefs that all people are born equal and should be treated as such. That being said, he has a conditioned disdain for and distrust in Mythics, and anything related to them. This basically means he doesn't seem them as equal to people, but rather as humanity's sworn enemy. He won't hate people for using their magic, but he will hard line reject them using it anywhere near him as he doesn't trust that the magic won't someday backfire horribly. To him the only things worse than a Mythic are a Hybrid and a Human who loves a Hybrid; he sees them as traitors to the Human race. Overall he's a fairly serious person, but can also be fairly kind as long as he believes he's speaking with an "untainted" Human. Being the diligent worker he is, he's very refined in combat and also gets top marks in his education.

    Relationships:
    • Parents: He loved and cared for them deeply. He had a lot of respect for his father, and to this day aspires to follow in his footsteps
    • Satoshi Yukimura: Uncle; thinks of him as disgraceful for marrying a Mythic Hybrid and quitting his career as a Guard Force member to start a family and distrusts him for it all
    • Kyo Yukimura: Aunt; hates her for existing and sees her as a vile temptress trying to help Mythics take control of the human race
    • Juushirou Yukimura: Cousin; hates him for existing, but acknowledges his fear of his Mythic side so he feels there might be some hope for him, but distrusts him nonetheless
    • Ryouko Yukimura: Cousin; hates her for existing and fully expects her to follow in her mother's footsteps in thinning out the Human ranks
    • Contessa Moretti: Godmother; barely knows her other than that she used to work with his dad. He respects her sense of justice shown in her continuation of her Guard Force career, but is unaware that she loves Mythics almost as much as his uncle

    Race: Artificial Mythic: Seraphim

    Combat style: Wings & Arcane Geometry

    Alupheaux Ad Lucem / Hyohaku (氷舶)

    Occupation: Cyberleaf Guard Force/Teacher

    Gender: Male

    Age: Unknown

    Race: Apotheosized Seraphim

    Relevance: Medium-High

    Combat style: Holy Magic, Wings with feathers that are magically augmented




    Personality: Confident and determined due to his abundance of experience, though often a bit aloof. Despite that reputation, he acts very differently towards different people, being very gentle and caring to other Mythics while ruthless when disposing of his enemies. He was once charismatic diplomate who preferred peaceful resolution, but experiences and betrayal eventually lead him away from that path. Currently, he prefers to work alone and is resentful towards building up relationships, and is often distrustful of humanity. His lack of trust and relations also caused his stubborn reluctance to share any of his planning and issues with others, being overconfident in his own abilities to resolve those things. This can often make him seem unnecessarily childish at times, with tendencies to act unpredictably.

    Relationships:
    • The Ad Lucem System: The series of clones that were created based off of him, which he originally planned to put down, though ultimately decided against it. He holds a grudge against their creators but cannot exactly quantify his feelings about the clones themselves.
    • High Ranked CGF Member (s): He anonymously provided a lot of support to the CGF since its earliest days, his deeds were only known to more senior members of the organization, but it helped him secure his current position.
    • To be added.


    Vinno Senkei (線硅 ビンノ)
    Occupation: Cyberleaf Guard Force - Field Researcher, Graduate Student

    Gender: Female

    Age: 21

    Race: Human

    Relevance: Medium-High

    Combat style: Trapping Caster - Utilizes a portable computer that is used to calculate and replicate traditional Mythic casting circles, then activating them via projections. A method that sacrifices the variety of magic for faster casting. Specializes in teleportation portals and pre-set traps.

    Personality:
    Seemingly apathetic, she has trouble empathizing or comprehending the emotions of others. Despite that she is a visionary when it comes to Mythic magic and magitek. Her forward thinking often makes her seem a bit bizarre and unconventional with most aspects of life. Most of the time she is bit distant and loves talking to herself with fancy vocabulary, she often overestimates how much technicalities others around her can understand. Pragmatic and calculating when it comes to opinions of others, including Mythics, thinks that if Mythics has useful qualities there's no reason to not integrate them into various things.

    Relationships:
    • Yuichi Yukimura: Is friends with him for his fighting style, admires his determination to better himself. Thinks his dismay for Mythics is irrational but accepts it as long as it does not interfere with their duties.
    • Shion Senkei: Father, where she got most of her personality and passion for magic research. The two get along well but doesn't meet often due to their workaholic natures.
    • To be added.

    Darasv "Vaeri" Vendomiir
    Occupation: 2nd Year Student

    Gender: Male

    Age: 17

    Race: Mythic (Dragon)

    Relevance: High

    Combat style: Twin swords of flame and ash (Fights with twin swords while supplementing it with fire magic, ash is for cloaking and blinding. Fun fact: incorporates dancing into his moves)

    Personality: Outwardly cold and silent, choosing to be mute. Often writes out his words rather than speaking and prefers to use gestures. Battle hardened and weary of fighting, yet continues practicing out of fear against attacks. Would sometimes get a blank expression on his face, only his eyes betraying any emotion whether it be sadness or longing. He usually pushes himself away from family to do his own thing, though he does wish things could have been different and that he could be closer to them, get to know them more, except for the spoiled brat. His father is not an issue since he's dead. Secretly has a love for the arts rather than fighting due to his mother and sister and would prefer entertaining people for them to smile to bloodshed, his nickname meaning "dancer" in ancient draconian language though it's one he hides from most people unless he very much trusts them. Constantly struggles with the cold blooded killer part of him, being from the front lines of Beast slaying, and the part of him that wishes to embrace the "womanly" desire to perpetuate Mythic arts. Due to this, often hates himself for the weakness he has but is unable to give up and the personality he built up over the years to cope with battling all his life.

    Relationships: ??? Vendomiir - Father: feared, loved, hated

    ??? Vendomiir - Mother: distant, longing, unsure

    Amelia Vendomiir - Older sister: distant, longing, respects, treasures

    Gender: Female

    Age: 20

    Race: Hybrid - Half Djinn

    Relevance: Medium

    Combat style: Weaponized: twin arabic scimitars ; Hand-to-Hand: Kickboxing style

    Personality: Quiet but calculating, and secretly sinister. Inara lacks social skills but is always listening. She has a firm belief in the justice system; however she tends to want to dispense her own form of punishment. For innocents, she acts friendly or generally apathetic - which is a good sign.

    Relationships:
    Mother - Aziza Kanaan: Djinn. And a proud one at that. Yes, Inara was given her mother's last name. The matriarch in a matriarchal family.
    Father - Itsuki Himura: Human. A very calm, easy-going man who gets dragged along for most things in his life. That includes his marriage.
    Yuichi Yukimura: Classmate in the Guard Force University. Considering his just nature and considerable combat skills, Inara actually looks up to this classmate and strives to be more like him. However, his disdain for everything mythic makes her twitchy and irritable.

    Daichi Imagawa

    Occupation: Part-Time Student, Third Year

    Gender: Male

    Age: 19

    Race: Human

    Relevance: High

    Combat style: Spellslinging - HoloCard Medium

    Personality: Depending on who you ask, Daichi is either the cool kid who's always got a smirk and a story for the people he talks to, or he's a rowdy troublemaker with no respect for authority. Both and neither are true at the same time, since it's never that simple with Daichi. He's definitely got that snarky, devil-may-care attitude that so infuriates his instructors and amuses his peers, but he's also got a lot of heart and spirit. The things that Daichi is passionate about, he is passionate about, and will defend those things to the ends of this plane if he has to. One of those things are his close friends, his true friends - more than the myriad friendly acquaintances he makes just through his extroverted personality. Even still, Daichi never misses an opportunity to playfully tease his friends. Always up for a spot of mischief, but ever is he a true and stalwart friend. That is Daichi.

    Relationships:
    • Suzume Imagawa: Daichi and his mother have a complicated relationship. They're friendly and amiable as any parent-child dynamic should be, but it almost seems as if the roles are reversed, seeing the two interact. Where Suzume seems to act slightly mischievous and catty, Daichi feels the compulsion to rein her in, especially with friends around. It's not uncommon for her to act flirty towards Daichi's male friends - if they're legal age, of course! That said, it's not impossible for Suzume to act her age, and is surprisingly kind and wise when she puts her mind to it.
    • Hayato Nori: Daichi rarely speaks of his father, who was abusive and short-tempered before Suzume divorced him and forced him to leave. Naturally, Daichi harbors a deep resentment of the man, though he hardly ever lets it color his day-to-day life.
    • Juushirou Yukimura: Shiro-kun - or "Yuki-chan" when he's feeling particularly playful - is perhaps, before all others, Daichi's best friend, though he won't earnestly admit it; usually dancing around the issue by calling him "best buddy" or something equally as silly to downplay the immense respect he has for his technical junior. Of course, the subject of whether he's actually Shiro's senior is a topic of heated-yet-friendly debate between the two, as the only reason that Daichi is older than Shiro is just that his birthday happens earlier in the year. Aside from that, Daichi feels a certain responsibility toward him, as though Shiro were the brother he never had.
    • Ryouko Yukimura: While he's on friendly terms with Shiro's sister, Daichi wastes no opportunity to tease her for being the "spoiled little girl" of the group. Despite this, however, Daichi is more than willing to put differences aside for the sake of getting up to greater mischief, and every time there's some grand disturbance it's usually because of them. Fifty percent rival, fifty percent partner-in-crime.
    • Satoshi Yukimura: Daichi's relationship with the man was ever one of utmost respect, even before he agreed to tutor him in the magical arts. Satoshi-san felt practically like an uncle to him, and seeing how he acted with his family almost made Daichi long for his own relationship with his father to not have turned out so badly, but that also comes with the caveat of his father being less of an ass.
    • Yuichi Yukimura: Absolute trash man. Daichi never misses an opportunity to muck up Yuichi's plans, and picks fights with the older cousin constantly. Fights that he has almost universally lost, but that'll never stop Daichi from protecting the honor of his friends.
    • Ayaka Hamasaki: As a fellow member of the Yukitomo - Daichi's word for the friend group he shares with Shiro - Ayaka enjoys similar privileges to that of Shiro. Namely, the "comrades-in-arms" sort of mentality that Daichi has towards their little circle. He tends to tease her about her sleeping habit, but he always knows when to back off.
    • ??????? ???????: A painful memory that Daichi would rather not remember, because of the uncomfortable mixture of sadness and anger remembering that family brings up.

    Kyou Sasaki
    Occupation: Guard Force University Junior; Part-Time Teahouse Attendant

    Gender: Androgynous Male

    Age: 20

    Race: Human

    Relevance: High

    Combat style: Archery - Technologic Arrowheads; Martial Arts - Taekwondo

    Personality: Most would see Kyou as a cold, calculating individual, and while that's partially true he's more just quiet and calm in all manner of situations. He plays his cards close to his chest, and rarely lets errant emotions slip through unless in a relaxed state. Even then, any emotion he shows is subdued - a light smile here, a slightly furrowed brow there. His enigmatic nature makes him difficult to approach, but ironically it's this same detached demeanor that makes it easy for people to confide in him. He rarely ever speaks, so he's the natural choice for a secret-keeper, right? For his part, Kyou doesn't mind indulging the impromptu confessionals, and in a way it almost makes him feel warm inside - like he's actually making a difference in someone's life. Even still, Kyou knows better than to get too attached, except for one instance...

    Relationships:
    • Yuichi Yukimura: Kyou treats his senior with a high level reverence and admiration, and is noticeably the only one he respects enough to call "Senpai". The question of Yuichi's treatment of mythics and hybrids is irrelevant in Kyou's eyes, as he cares more about Yuichi's personal philosophy. Senpai's determination and will are an inspiration to him, and it's only around Yuichi that Kyou's icy exterior cracks, as it were. There's plenty of rumors as to why this is, but Kyou naturally doesn't care to confirm or deny any of them.
    • Vinno Senkei: While Kyou rarely ever categorizes people with labels like "friend" or "coworker", he does hold a modicum of respect for Vinno as a peer and colleague - as well as a superior. He tends to question some of her decisions at times, but he's known her long enough to understand that she's just wired differently than him. He finds her pragmatism a touch refreshing in the day-to-day, few though their interactions can be.
    • Inara Kanaan: Another peer whom Kyou respects, though more as a sense of kindred rather than peership. Other than Yuichi, Inara is one of the most likely people Kyou would ever feel comfortable confiding in, though due to his nature he tends to not do so often. Even with this, however, he gets an odd, uneasy feeling whenever she and Yuichi interact, but he's never been able to pin it with words so he's never brought it up with either of them.
    • Rie Koizumi: The owner of the teashop that Kyou works at part-time, when he's not at University. Though she's unrelated by blood, Kyou feels toward her as if she were his own mother, although that doesn't really say much in terms of emotional vulnerability. Some might consider his treatment of Rie to be uncaring and disrespectful, but she knows that he's just a heavily conflicted boy with deep-seated issues.
    • The Yukimura Group: Kyou tends to think of them as a collective rather than as individuals, since in his experience he's never seen one without at least one other hanging around. Tends to subconsciously feel a small amount of disdain for Ryouko - or rather, the excessive doting that Juushirou places upon her. Whether this is from jealousy or genuine disgust, Kyou has been unable to resolve. For the most part, however, Kyou tends to just leave them be, though if they challenge Yuichi directly he steps in if Yuichi himself doesn't deal with it first.
    • Kyou's Parents: As far as Kyou is concerned, he doesn't have parents. Any attempts to discern a reason are met with the same disillusioned stare.

    (Ferd Yanus)
    Occupation: 3rd Year Student

    Gender: Male

    Age: 17

    Race: Human

    Relevance: Medium

    Combat style: Dimensional-Fist Boxing Style

    Personality: Yanus is a closet saint who hides behind a tough exterior. Since his youth Yanus has been conditioned by his foster family to maintain a hardened exterior. The world is a harsh place. With harsher realities waiting. For this, Yanus must not allow things to affect him. He speaks out when something does not go according to his personal plan and acts stubborn. He does not reply when in a group because so often his voice has gone unheard. Not to mention he cares not for his natural resting bitch-face. However, his innate goodness has been cultivated behind that tough, offensive aura he has.

    Yanus collects litter around his apartment complex in the early mornings before his regular jogs. Yanus offers the homeless money he intended to save. Or help someone when they go to the counter and are short a few dollars. He is the guy who wants to adopt all the homeless dogs in the world but only has so many resources.

    Once or twice, he will take a small hit for a big pay off if it helps another person. Yanus is known to have started a fight once or twice just because he thought someone was bullying another person. He cries when other people cry or are in pain, but fights to not show it.

    Relationships: Foster Mother - Morb: An honorable and highly respected member of the Orc community. Which sometimes does not mean much in the eyes of other Mythics or humans. She is a person filled with love for her family and her people. She does a large amount of volunteer work since she cannot find a decent job.

    Foster Father - Bugler: A strong and demanding man who pushes Ferd to be more like himself. Sometimes seen as an oddity in the community for being an orc with a decent accounting job. Also, for not going to a rage every day.

    (Yahav Staphos)

    Gender: Male (trans)

    Age: 26

    Race: Hybrid - He's the child of Greek Mythic Tyche (Goddess of Luck and Fortune) and a human woman

    Relevance: Medium to high

    Combat style: Close Hand-to-Hand combat and luck (think Domino from X-men, but without the guns)

    Personality: He's not a naturally violent person, but his fighting skills are refined and dangerous. Overall Yahav's a rather calm person who can absorb a lot of chaos and turn things around. He has a relatively positive outlook on life, but just like everyone else he gets stressed and flustered. He doesn't get out much and only recently opened up the small bar that Xylander likes to drink at. Yahav's relatively responsible, but can be a bit forgetful. It's a positive that his luck helps him keep on top of things

    Relationships: Xylander Florakis - drinking buddies and long time friends. They grew up together and are relatively close.
    Tyche - mother; he doesn't really talk to her much since she doesn't approve of his transition
    Unnamed human woman - mother; gave him to Tyche when he was an infant to be raised by Tyche in the mythic realm

    Aramil Nakamura
    Occupation: Part-time magic teacher, part-time CGF

    Gender: Male

    Age: 34

    Race: Hybrid, Half Elf

    Relevance: Medium-High

    Combat style: Ice spellsword. Speed and precision with the sword from his father, with ice magic to enhance his abilities from his mother

    Personality: At first, he may come off as very rude. This is mostly due to his brutal honesty. He never holds anything back, no matter what, and hates when others do. Another detail that may be apparent to people When they first meet him, is that he seems very cold. He is hard to get close to, but once you manage to get past that thick layer of ice, there's a loyal and kind person always ready to help you. This is particularly notable when he has to exercise teamwork with unknown people, being difficult to work with. There is an exception to this however, and that is his students, as he has a soft spot for them. Don't get the wrong idea, he is still strict and harsh, but it is easier for them to get on his good side.

    Relationships:
    Hiroshi Nakamura: Father. You might think they dislike each other, as they look rather distant. This couldn't be farther from the truth. They just have developed a relationship in which not many words are needed to show they deeply care about and respect each other.

    Naivara Amakiir: Mother. Unlike with his father, Aramil does need to stay in touch with his mother. Otherwise, he knows she would start to worry about him. Being busy with his jobs, Aramil occasionally calls her to catch up, seldom visiting her for the same reason.

    Potential Roles
    The following are some character roles that we all came up with for people to claim as desired. I will continue to update this for any characters taken by interested members.

    As a bonus note, the current character role balance among completed characters is as follows:
    Humans: 13 Hybrids: 7 Mythics: 12
    HS Students: 3 HS Students: 2 HS Students: 8

    Others: 1 Others: 0(+1) Others: 1
    As you can see, we are in a desperate need of more Human HS students and non-Human Guard Force members. Please take this into consideration going forward. The following are various character roles that could be filled out. Take a look at them and let us know in the OOC if you want any of them.
    • (Always Accepting) Cyberleaf Guard Force
      Being a city surrounded by walls and at risk of invasion by Beasts, obviously there needs to be a collection of guardians who defend the city inside and out. They operate as a large scale task force for dealing with all manner of situations from domestic conflict to Beast outbreaks. Think of them as a hybrid between a police force and SWAT team. Since we're looking for a variety of characters, I felt it'd be interesting to also show the stories of the characters who risk their lives to defend the peace of the city. The only other major detail that needs to be taken into consideration is that 11 years prior to the start of the RP, the head chief of this task force lost his life, and is remembered as a strict but dedicated commander. Characters made for this task force are totally open; anyone interested may use any race or gender for task force members. Having these characters isn't necessarily going to be held as detrimental for the RP to start, but some will need to be introduced eventually.
    • (Available) School Staff
      Having a mostly school setting means that we've gotta have at least a couple teacher characters. These characters are primarily meant to just be well established side characters, and are only intended to be taken by those who are invested. Teachers can be any race or gender; it's totally up to the writer to decide. There's only 1 teacher that I will enforce a specific point to their character: the teacher in charge of teaching the students general/group combat classes should either be an active or retired high ranking member of the CGF.
    • (Always Open) Classmates
      Having a mostly school setting means that we've gotta have more students than just the small handful we've got so far. Students can be any race or gender; it's totally up to the writer to decide. Basically, this is where people can just go ham with their imaginations.
    • (Available) Mina Igarashi
      As a higher up member of the Guard Force, she was given the task of watching over, protecting, and being the primary guardian of the 3 Seraphim clones that were found as the result of some very illegal experiments and now reside in Cyberleaf. Given her position, she is expected to be in her 30s or older, unless specified otherwise in discussion. Appearance is totally up to you should you choose this character. Relevance is expected to be anywhere from Low to High. (Anyone who finds interest in this character, please tag @Cresion Breezes as they are the one who came up with the character. Also, it is unclear at this stage whether she is expected to be all Human or not, so consider discussing this as well.)
    • (Available) Arc Ciel
      Adoptive father of Guard Force member Lata Lulila, he is expected to be in his mid-late 30s or older. He should have a stable job and personality, but not much else has been specified about him. Appearance is totally up to you should you choose this character. Relevance is expected to be Low to Medium. (Anyone who finds interest in this character, please tag @chaosheart13 and discuss details with her as she is the one that came up with the character. Also, it is unclear at this stage whether he is expected to be all Human or not, so consider discussing this as well.)
    • (Available) Amanda Calistan
      One of the scientists that raised Lata Lulila for much of her childhood. She is expected to be roughly in her 30s or older, unless specified otherwise in discussion. The two have a mutual respect for each other, and seem to have a fairly neutral to positive relationship. Appearance is totally up to you should you choose this character. Relevance is expected to be Low. (Anyone who finds interest in this character, please tag @chaosheart13 and discuss details with her as she is the one that came up with the character. Also, it is unclear at this stage whether she is expected to be all Human or not, so consider discussing this as well.)
    • (Available) Baron Wallenstein
      One of the scientists that raised Lata Lulila for much of her childhood. He is expected to be roughly in his 30s or older, unless specified otherwise in discussion. The two have a mutual respect for each other, although Lata often seems put off by him so their relationship is likely awkward at best. Appearance is totally up to you should you choose this character. Relevance is expected to be Low. (Anyone who finds interest in this character, please tag @chaosheart13 and discuss details with her as she is the one that came up with the character. Also, it is unclear at this stage whether he is expected to be all Human or not, so consider discussing this as well.)
    • (Available) Garo Daitouku
      One of the scientists that raised Lata Lulila for much of her childhood. He is expected to be roughly in his 30s or older, unless specified otherwise in discussion. The two have a mutual respect for each other, although Lata seems to be wary of him so it's likely that his personality is askew or he might have done something to cause her to be cautious of him. Appearance is totally up to you should you choose this character. Relevance is expected to be Low. (Anyone who finds interest in this character, please tag @chaosheart13 and discuss details with her as she is the one that came up with the character. Also, it is unclear at this stage whether he is expected to be all Human or not, so consider discussing this as well.)
    • (Available) Phila Corbin
      One of the scientists that raised Lata Lulila for much of her childhood. She is expected to be roughly in her 30s or older, unless specified otherwise in discussion. The two have a mutual respect for each other, and seem to have a fairly neutral to positive relationship. Appearance is totally up to you should you choose this character. Relevance is expected to be Low. (Anyone who finds interest in this character, please tag @chaosheart13 and discuss details with her as she is the one that came up with the character. Also, it is unclear at this stage whether she is expected to be all Human or not, so consider discussing this as well.)
    • (Available) Mario Moretti
      One of the scientists that raised Lata Lulila for much of her childhood, as well as the older brother of Contessa Moretti. He is expected to be in his late 40s or older, Human, and has a bad relationship with his sister. He and Lata seem to have a mutual respect for each other, but she fears and dislikes him nonetheless so they don't have a good relationship either. Appearance is totally up to you should you choose this character. Relevance is expected to be Low to Medium. (Anyone who finds interest in this character, please tag @chaosheart13 and discuss details with her as she is the one that came up with the character.)
    • (Available) Suzume Imagawa
      Mother of Daichi Imagawa, she has a slightly mischievous and catty personality, oftentimes having to get reined in by her only child. She also tends to get flirty with any (of age) male friends that Daichi brings home. Even so, she's an overall kind person, and she does have the capacity to act mature and wise as some might not believe. Her former marriage to Daichi's father was one of frequent fights and cases of domestic violence, ending when Suzume became fed up with the abuse to her and her son and filed for divorce, effectively kicking her now ex-husband out of the house. That said, she earns decent money for herself and is capable of supporting her family of 2 on her own. She also has adequate knowledge of magic, but isn't the most effective teacher. She is acquainted with Satoshi Yukimura, and enlisted his assistance in teaching her son to use magic. Appearance and age for her are totally up to you, however she must be Human. Relevance is expected to be around Medium, but you can boost or dampen it if you'd like depending on how much you want to use the character. (Anyone who finds interest in this character, please tag @Hieronymous Phantom and discuss details with them as they are the one that came up with the character.)

She plans to use this knowledge to build her own devices as well as incorporate it into her magic.

Relationships:
Ruby Vendomiir: Sister -- amused by, views as too passionate, likes to make mad, distant
Amelia Vendomiir: Sister -- bored by, likes to upset and scare, views as too serious, distant
Darasv Vendomiir: Brother -- both amused and bored by depending on the situation, can tell he is harboring a secret, likes to upset, finds him odd, distant
Iskixen Vendomiir: Mother -- respects, doesn't mess with or bother, distant
Elena Correy: Maid -- often the victim of her antics, neutral

I'm having trouble with her photo but I'll update it tomorrow since I really need to sleep. Zarla will be up either tomorrow or Tuesday.
 
so I see you got the image issue figured out! The only concern I have with the CS is that since she's Amelia's twin, shouldn't she be in the same year of school as her?
 
Oh yes! Duh, haha. I was exhausted when I posted it, I'll fix that now.

Zarla is finished and will be up soon. I started a 9-5 internship and haven't had the time to do it yet.

Hi I've spoken with @chaosheart13 and came up with this for the premade character "Magara Staphos".

(Yahav Staphos)
Occupation: Ex Guard Force Official, bar-tender, part-time teacher

Gender: Male (trans)

Age: 26

Race: Hybrid - He's the child of Greek Mythic Tyche (Goddess of Luck and Fortune) and a human woman

Relevance: Medium to high

Combat style: Close Hand-to-Hand combat and luck (think Domino from X-men, but without the guns)

Personality: He's not a naturally violent person, but his fighting skills are refined and dangerous. Overall Yahav's a rather calm person who can absorb a lot of chaos and turn things around. He has a relatively positive outlook on life, but just like everyone else he gets stressed and flustered. He doesn't get out much and only recently opened up the small bar that Xylander likes to drink at. Yahav's relatively responsible, but can be a bit forgetful. It's a positive that his luck helps him keep on top of things

Relationships: Xylander Florakis - drinking buddies and long time friends. They grew up together and are relatively close.
Tyche - mother; he doesn't really talk to her much since she doesn't approve of his transition
Unnamed human woman - mother; gave him to Tyche when he was an infant to be raised by Tyche in the mythic realm

Sorry for the delayed response; work and insomnia have been kicking my butt lately

@Karo they both look great! Go ahead and get started on DCSes

@alint attachment tags typically don't work in conjunction with ICSS tags. That said, now that you've uploaded the image to Iwaku it has its own url which you can use for the ICSS tag. Just copy paste this into the tag: https://www.iwakuroleplay.com/attachments/1563761846920-png.181389/
 
hey guys, I know it's been a whole month without updates and I'm sorry about that; I've kinda had a lot going on that's been overwhelming me. I don't plan on dropping this RP though, and if y'all are still willing to participate then that would be a relief to me ^^; if not though, I understand completely

Aramil Nakamura
Occupation: Part-time magic teacher, part-time CGF

Gender: Male

Age: 34

Race: Hybrid, Half Elf

Relevance: Medium-High

Combat style: Ice spellsword. Speed and precision with the sword from his father, with ice magic to enhance his abilities from his mother

Personality: At first, he may come off as very rude. This is mostly due to his brutal honesty. He never holds anything back, no matter what, and hates when others do. Another detail that may be apparent to people When they first meet him, is that he seems very cold. He is hard to get close to, but once you manage to get past that thick layer of ice, there's a loyal and kind person always ready to help you. This is particularly notable when he has to exercise teamwork with unknown people, being difficult to work with. There is an exception to this however, and that is his students, as he has a soft spot for them. Don't get the wrong idea, he is still strict and harsh, but it is easier for them to get on his good side.

Relationships:
Hiroshi Nakamura: Father. You might think they dislike each other, as they look rather distant. This couldn't be farther from the truth. They just have developed a relationship in which not many words are needed to show they deeply care about and respect each other.

Naivara Amakiir: Mother. Unlike with his father, Aramil does need to stay in touch with his mother. Otherwise, he knows she would start to worry about him. Being busy with his jobs, Aramil occasionally calls her to catch up, seldom visiting her for the same reason.

More TBD
 
Everything looks to be in order!

@Jessica2477 @invincibleDumpling @Verran @Cresion Breezes @chaosheart13 @EternalInfinity @RiddL @SoleStride @Hieronymous Phantom @Tetrunes @RedArmyShogun @EmperorsChosen @MYTH* @Karo

Alright everyone, pinged update time! Once again I want to apologize for the leave of absence I've been taking; a lot has been going on for me IRL linked heavily to my financial situation suffering and putting a heavy toll on my mental health tied with taking on extra projects and not being able to juggle them all at once, ESPECIALLY while my mental health was suffering. Well now those projects are a lot less taxing on me right now (they died basically cuz other ppl weren't responding), and my financial situation is improving so I'm a lot less frustrated! I want to formally thank you all for your patience with me and for sticking around in spirit. Now for a status update!

Point 1: As you may have noticed, I just approved Valkan's character as a magic teacher. I know I previously mentioned that magic would be taught strictly by parents and that schools wouldn't typically get involved, but I recently had an idea. Initially Valkan wanted their character to be a part-time combat teacher, but we already had 2 combat teachers and I didn't want to totally turn down the character (even though I said I'd cut off new characters fuck I'm inconsistent but I didn't want to turn away a new member). Anyways, the idea I came up with that would allow the character without technically breaking established lore would be to have an optional extra-curricular class for the safe and assisted practice of magic. This class would provide generalized lessons in mana manipulation and would essentially be an ungraded class designed to be like a study-hall for practical application of magic. Because it's an optional extra-curricular class, it's one that can have students from different classes and years (within the high school) in attendance, and it'd typically only be held once or twice a week rather than every day like combat classes.

Point 2: I have updated the tabs on our DCS page. As I promised a while back, I have swapped out the Needed Characters tab for the DCS Chart tab, which displays all of the characters with an approved SCS color-coded according to the state of their DCS. After compiling all that data I came to realize something; there's a higher percentage of us that need to finish our characters than I initially thought. Including Valkan, 10/16 of us have unfinished work. Considering characters won't be allowed to post in the IC once it's established until their DCS is complete, and considering both I and chaosheart13 are on that list, this is a very significant deficit. Not to mention there are some additional characters that need to be doctored up (such as the mothers of 3+ different families). I will begin work on my own sheets soon, so I expect to see some work done by those who have left their characters at the SCS stage this time. In the case of RedArmyShogun's Iba Ibaraki I know I owe you some code, which I will begin working on post-haste. In the meantime, please work on Irina Kreisel's DCS for completion.

Point 3: Since I'm at a point where I can somewhat predict my availability for certain weeks, I want to keep everyone posted on my general schedule. My typical work week consists of late shifts on Sundays, Mondays, Tuesdays, and Fridays. I work on Saturdays as well, but typically am off about 3 hours earlier than the rest of the week. Wednesdays and Thursdays are my designated off days. Thursdays I usually make an attempt to visit with a close friend of mine in VRChat, but it doesn't always work out. On the week of Halloween (October 31st) I will be out of town to visit family, and will only be available on Discord, but only just barely. Roughly 2 weeks after this there will me an anime convention where I live that I will hopefully be attending. That said, it takes place on the weekend, so it shouldn't affect my overall availability for that week too drastically. After this, there shouldn't be any excellent roadblocks in my schedule outside of maintaining what I already have running (until Christmas/New Year's-time near the end of December).

Point 4: With everything I've laid out, I want to set a deadline for the start of the IC. The preferable start should be by the end of October to the middle of November, but the absolute deadline will be set at the beginning of December. When things actually start up weighs heavily on everyone's ability to get DCSes of their key-characters with higher Relevance finished, so let's all buckle down and get some work done so this project can finally move into the next stage. I'm sure many of you are getting antsy to start, and I want to respond to that in kind. Thank you all for your extended patience with out sluggish pacing in setting everything up!


Everything from here on are comments to specific people from me.

@Panda3 You never did get back to me, so I'm tagging you here to make sure you saw my message. In order to approve your SCS I need you to copy the link I provided you earlier into the icss tag so your character image shows up in the post.

@alint Thank you for following the instructions I had given you, but it seems you also deleted the attachment itself. The link to the attachment will typically only work if the attachment exists on the site, so deleting it broke the link. A simple fix would be to upload the image to a site like pixlr (absolutely don't use Photobucket though) and copying the link to it into the SCS, which will permanently resolve the issue. If you don't have an account on a site like that and you don't feel comfortable setting one up, feel free to send the image to me via Discord and I can upload it to mine and provide you with a link.

@chaosheart13 I hope you are doing well lately; I'm sorry for not keeping in touch. That said Hun, we both gotta get our gears grinding so we're not holding everyone back as the co-GMs. With that in mind, I wanted to let you know that it seams that Lila Moretti's image link is broken.
 
Thank for the update! Alright, I'll get those things addressed, also need to find Lila's image again OTL

Kyo Yukimura (雪村 雩) née Kozaki (狐崎)
Occupation: Shrinekeeper, Exorcist, Part-Time Financial Advisor

Gender: Female

Age: 49

Race: Mythic (Half-Youko Hybrid)

Relevance: Medium

Combat style: Extra Stage Boss

Personality: A woman who follows the beat of her own drum, Kyo Yukimura could be easily described as an eccentric, especially given that her behaviours and attitudes are sometimes foreign to her human acquaintances. Indeed, growing up biracial was difficult for Kyo, who leaned more strongly into her Youko heritage to compensate for her identity issues and the racism she faced throughout life. She has a strong appreciation for her individuality and background, and in her role as a community leader does her best to help guide people through the same predicaments that she once experienced. Like her daughter, she is a committed anti-racist. However, at times she can be forgetful and a bit myopic, taking the exceptional traits she possesses for granted and assuming that others can do the same as her. At other times, she can be a bit of a whirlwind (even if her demeanour is calm and serene), accidentally throwing people off by taking to a task with her own, unique flair.

And Kyo is very much serious about her goals. She puts her all into things, whether it be work, family or love. Few customers have been dissatisfied with her exorcisms and financial advice, and she is incredibly devoted to her two children, raising them as best as she can and passing on her culture. And she is entirely smitten with her husband. After all, she did follow him to finance school after she fell in love.

Relationships:
  • Satoshi:
    朝宿髪 吾者不梳 愛 君之手枕 觸義之鬼尾
    I will not comb my morning hair:
    your loving arm, my pillow,
    Has lain under it.

    [Manyoshu, 2578]​
  • Juushirou: Kyo loves her son. She dotes on him. She would give anything to make him happy, to keep him safe. That's why it hurts, knowing he's so scared of her. It hurts, knowing how frightened he is of her heritage - his heritage. It hurts, knowing that she wasn't able to keep him and his friend safe. It hurts that she couldn't be there for him. Sometimes, she feels like a failure of a mother. But, she's still his mother. And she will never stop loving him.
  • Ryouko: Kyo sees herself in her daughter. That's why she will always be there for Ryouko, asking about her day, making sure she's okay, and simply being someone to confide in when things get difficult. She loves Ryouko. But at the same time, she won't dote on her too much. Ryouko is more than just her beloved daughter; she's also her beloved student. Kyo will train Ryouko to the best she can. She will train her little girl to be someone great. Someone who can straddle their two worlds with head held with pride.
  • Yuichi: She doesn't like him. Even if she wants to like him, even if he is her beloved's nephew ... she can't bring herself to like someone so full of hypocrisy, so full of bigotry, so full of hate. A part of her hopes that one day, maybe, Yuichi can call her "auntie". But now, she cannot like him. She meets those young eyes so full of rage with divine ice, and answers: she will not leave Satoshi, and she will never, ever let him hurt her children.
  • Suzume: Kyo gets along with Suzume Imagawa, given the friendship between their children, though whether or not they could consider each other friends isn't a question she's particularly dwelled upon. She's respectful and considerate of the other woman, and would be willing to help out in any way (especially if it pertains to Daichi). However, she does wish that Suzume refrain from flirting with Juushirou, no matter how joking her intentions.
  • Daichi: Kyo thinks that Daichi is a good boy, if a bit reckless. She's a fan of his card tricks. Sometimes, they play koi-koi together. And when he inevitably ends up in trouble, she is just as willing to bail him out as she would for her own children. If he needs alcohol, she'll supply him with some as well.
  • Ayaka: Kyo treats Ayaka like a second daughter. She is always happy to receive the girl's food offerings, and always airs out the futon in Ryouko's closet whenever Ayaka comes by to visit. If Ayaka needs alcohol, she'll supply her with some as well.

She's perfect! Go ahead and get started on her DCS now ^-^


He also looks good. Go ahead and get started on a DCS.

I know I told everyone that entries for new characters were cut off, but due to the loss of a handful of members due to a combination of delays and lack of patience, or in other cases just pure silence, I feel it's appropriate that we open the doors again to take what we can get. I'm also considering launching the ad banner again, but for now we'll be focusing on finishing what we have so things can get started.

Kyo Yukimura née Kozaki



Alt Spelling/Meaning: 雪村 雩 (formerly 狐崎 雩) - a prayer and sacrifice for rain, as befitting a servant of the gods. While she has adopted her husband's surname (snow village), she was formerly a Kozaki, written with the characters for "fox" and "mountain". Her family has never been particularly subtle.

Nicknames: ???

Occupation: Shrinekeeper, Exorcist, Part-Time Financial Advisor

Gender: Female

Age: 49

Race: Mythic (Half-Youko Hybrid)

Relevance: Medium

Skills: A renaissance woman who in her almost fifty years of life has obtained a cornucopia of useful skills for many occasions. Whether it be her natural talents at magic (particularly in the manipulation of water, wind and ice), her spiritual powers (used both to commune with the divine and to deal with any ghostly apparitions), her strong affinity for financial advice (helping many a family avoid being cheated by sketchy loans), or the mochitsuki ceremony (and other assorted minor skills), Kyo has it all, and will make use of them to the best of her abilities.

And she is entirely smitten with her husband. After all, she did follow him to finance school after she fell in love.

Background: Her father a messenger to the gods and her mother a human, Kyo was the result of a meeting between worlds, a woman who would have to straddle an unique background for the rest of her life. And this showed very much in the way she thought and acted - her upbringing, one that was both Youko and human, led her to realise that she was different to many of her peers ... and the racism they threw her way did much to reinforce that. It was difficult, then, for her to truly commit to her human heritage, and throughout much of her life, she found herself identifying harder with her father's culture, spending much time at the shrine he oversaw and following in his footsteps. She struggled much with her identity, and while in the end she was able to come to terms with her mother's side, she was somebody who saw herself as more Youko than human.

Although, she still preferred to don human form, unwilling to face the stream of racism that she knew society would deliver.

While training to be a shrinekeeper, Kyo also found herself acting as a troubleshooter for the issues that sprouted up around her community. It was through her dealings with these that she became known as a local spiritual figure, somebody who would be willing to handle whatever Mystic-related issue that fell her way or simply serve as a source of reliable guidance. During this time, she also met the love of her life - Satoshi. One thing led to another (which included her following him to finance school, somehow), and eventually they married.

They started a family. She gave birth to Juushirou and Ryouko. They were happy.

Then Juushirou found himself in such a terrible state, and she didn't know what to do. In the aftermath of his incident with the foxfire, she did her best to be a mother to him, her best to help him through the trauma - even applying a charm that would suppress his Youko powers, suppress the heritage she had so proudly bestowed upon her beloved son. At the time, she wondered if her actions had even been correct, if she had truly helped her son.

In the end, all she could do was try her best.

That was what defined her efforts. Whether it be dealing with Yuichi, making sure her children grew up well, or her many roles - she simply sought to do her best. To follow her own path, hoping that in the end, it would produce a good outcome.

Treasured Memories: The first time she held a weapon, being entrusted care of the shrine, the growth of her second tail, her first date, graduating finance school, her wedding, the birth of her children, each and every single one of their birthdays and graduations ... so many memories that she would never forget.

It was difficult, then, for her to truly commit to her human heritage, and throughout much of her life, she found herself identifying harder with her father's culture, spending much time at the shrine he oversaw and following in his footsteps. She struggled much with her identity, and while in the end she was able to come to terms with her mother's side, she was somebody who saw herself as more Youko than human.

Although, she still preferred to don human form, unwilling to face the stream of racism that she knew society would deliver.

While training to be a shrinekeeper, Kyo also found herself acting as a troubleshooter for the issues that sprouted up around her community. It was through her dealings with these that she became known as a local spiritual figure, somebody who would be willing to handle whatever Mystic-related issue that fell her way or simply serve as a source of reliable guidance. During this time, she also met the love of her life - Satoshi. One thing led to another (which included her following him to finance school, somehow), and eventually they married.

They started a family. She gave birth to Juushirou and Ryouko. They were happy.

Then Juushirou found himself in such a terrible state, and she didn't know what to do. In the aftermath of his incident with the foxfire, she did her best to be a mother to him, her best to help him through the trauma - even applying a charm that would suppress his Youko powers, suppress the heritage she had so proudly bestowed upon her beloved son. At the time, she wondered if her actions had even been correct, if she had truly helped her son.

In the end, all she could do was try her best.

That was what defined her efforts. Whether it be dealing with Yuichi, making sure her children grew up well, or her many roles - she simply sought to do her best. To follow her own path, hoping that in the end, it would produce a good outcome.

[B]Treasured Memories:[/B] The first time she held a weapon, being entrusted care of the shrine, the growth of her second tail, her first date, graduating finance school, her wedding, the birth of her children, each and every single one of their birthdays and graduations ... so many memories that she would never forget.

Damion Winters


Alt Spelling/Meaning: None

Occupation: HS Student (3rd Year)

Gender: Male

Age: 18

Race: Hybrid (Tiefling/Demon)

Relevance: High Relevance

Skills:
Innate Magical Abilities:
The ability to shoot out bolts of fire (He can shoot out bolts of flame from his hands that have an effective range of up to 120ft.)
The ability to create minor visual and audible illusions (Such as an apple on a teachers desk or someone calling out down a hall.)
Damion's demonic heritage grants him some amount of resistance to fire.
Learned Magical Abilities:
The ability to make himself invisible (Can stay invisible for about an hour but it drops if he attacks something. He can also still make noise while invisible.)
The ability to create more major visual and audible illusions (Larger illusions with more believable detail such as a talking person or as loud as a fire alarm going off throughout a building. If interacted with though these illusions disappear just like most other illusions.)

Relationships: (Who do they know and what are their relationships with those people?)
Lora Winters (Damion's human mother) Damion's relationship with his mother is relatively normal. She is happy with how smart she knows her son is but is worried about the rebellious side of him. While she's afraid that his antics will only continue to get him in trouble Damion believes his mother worries too much. He's always had a knack for not getting caught and believes his way of doing things is how he'll make his way in life.

Daarnu Winters (Damion's Demon Father) Much to the displeasure of Lora, Daarnu actually encourages Damion's less than civil antics at school. He's proud to see his son making his own way in the world that isn't bound by what others say; showing that the boy is self sufficient and isn't afraid to bend a few rules to get results. Damion likes seeing his father acknowledge what he does which is what of course convinces him to do more and more. Damion knows his father expects things of him and has no desire to disappoint him; especial after that one time someone slammed a door in his mother face with his father right there.

Personality: At first impressions anyone would see Damion for the slippery slime ball that he is. His constant shifty eyes and devilish smirks spell out no good intentions as plain as a highway billboard. He's constantly scheming and observing as to where and how his next score will happen. He doesn't do things for no reason or for free unless there's a motive behind it. He's the kinda guy that would sell to both sides of a conflict so to speak, playing all sides to his own benefit. But he is still cowardly so when things get too hot has has no qualms ditching certain situations. In best cases he tricks others to get the more risky things he needs doing done with limited risk to himself.

Of course this has earned him more enemies than friends in most cases so he's become increasingly paranoid over the years as well. He never really trusts people who do kind deeds just for the sake of it thinking of them as either trying to get something themselves or that they are just fools. Now, Damion has no problem doing something that ends up positive for someone else so long as he gets something out of the deal. This is likely a big misconception most people will have about the young man; most students simply believing that he's a sower of chaos for chaos' sake. On contrary Damion likes that laws and rules are a thing. Not only do such things inhibit others they also present fun things for him to scoot around from time to time.

Background: Even within the diverse society of Cyberleaf City Damion dealt with his own dose of discrimination like most hybrids and mythics. Due his devilish features it was hard if not impossible for him to make friends with the other children in school. He easily scarred other kids just be being around them and the few kids who wanted to be friends were always pulled away by their parents. Even most elementary teachers simply expected Damion to be a bad seed and so treated him as such without getting to know him first. To combat this Damion would usually create little pets with his innate illusion magics. Through a form of puppetry he'd have full blown conversations with them, making new ones all the time.

Later on in his early teens before high school Damion was picked on for his only friends being ones that he makes up. Many times kids would purposely interact with his illusion friends knowing they would disappear mocking and saying that they killed them; usually forcing his creations to be apart of their games titling them as the beasts. This broke what little compassion Damion had left and which started his own path of bullying. He played countless pranks most of which would get said students in trouble with the faculty as a form of vengeance. Creating illusions of specific students pulling fire alarms, copying voices of various students saying rude things to teachers in the middle of class and anything in between.

Now in high school Damion continues to go about his antics in order to make sure he stays more or less on top of things. He makes deals with students in exchange for later date favors or immediate compensation of all kinds. The young man had become a creation of what society deemed him to be, nothing but a misfit. Only this misfit wanted to make something of himself far beyond what was expected of him from others. Whether it was through good deeds or bad deeds meant little to him so long as he gets ahead in life.

Treasured Memories: There was one human teacher during middle school who'd defended Damion from some kids, giving them all detention on the spot. His name was Mr. Philips and he's the only teacher Damion has every liked.

Notes: Thomas and William Rosewood are two brothers completely made up by Damion. He commonly creates one or both during school and talks to them and has them respond to him though its barely different than if Damion was just talking to himself. He'll conjure them up to make himself look more imposing at times or to just have someone to validate his ideas with or to even just have people to sit next to at lunch.
